Universidade Aberta (UAb), a public distance-teaching university, embraces as its basic mission to train students whom, for whatever reasons, where not able at the appropriate time, to enter or complete higher education studies. At the same time, Universidade Aberta tries to meet the expectations of all those who, having obtained a university qualification, wish to convert or update it. This means that, by vocation, we try to answer the expectations of an adult public with life experience and for the most part already pursuing a professional career.
